Blender 3D textured low-poly mesh, created using photogrammetry. Ideal for inclusion in all types of realistic scenes. Append it into your Blender Scene, and you're ready to go !

A very old cast-iron kettle, nowadays used as a household ornament. The nice patina of rust on the surface of the iron is clearly visible.

Features & benefits

• Ready to use. No additional set-up needed.
• Set to real-world dimensions, so never any need to re-scale to fit your Scene, after Appending.
• Render-ready, for Physically Based Rendering (PBR).
• Scene is lit using a high dynamic-range image (HDRI).
• Geometry & textures based on high-quality studio photography of the real-world object.
• Geometry : Low-poly mesh. Faces (Tris) : 7 398 Vertices : 3 701
• Texturing : High-quality 4K textures (4096 px x 4096 px). 'Baked' textures : Base colour texture; Normals map texture; Displacement texture
• Render engine(s) : Material nodes set-up for Cycles or Eevee render engines. May be rendered in Cycles or Eevee.

Included in your purchase

• Blender (.blend) file, with the 3D model (on a ground plane) and embedded textures
• Textures, packed into the Blender file and provided in a separate zipped file
• Free HDRI, from HDR Haven (www.hdri-haven.com)

The creative process

1. Studio photography of the real-world object
   
2. Pre-processing of photos, for creation of mesh geometry & texturing (in a photography workflow application)
   
3. Creation of mesh geometry (in 3D reconstruction software)
   
4. High-poly mesh 'clean-up', using sculpting and mesh clean-up tools and mesh modelling (in Blender)
5. Texture creation for the 'cleaned-up' high-poly mesh (in 3D reconstruction software)
6. Creation of a low-poly version of the mesh (in Blender)
7. Displacement, normals and base colour texture baking and Material nodes setup (in Blender)
8. Scaling to real-world dimensions; lighting by HDRI (in Blender)

Software used in creation of the 3D model

• Photography workflow application (photo pre-processing, for mesh geometry & texture)
• 3D reconstruction software (creation of mesh geometry; texture creation for the 'cleaned-up' high-poly mesh)
• Blender (high-poly mesh 'clean-up'; creation of a low-poly version of the mesh; displacement, normals and base colour texture baking and Material nodes setup; scaling to real-world dimensions; lighting by HDRI).

Real-world-dimensions

Approximately 20 cm high and 13.5 cm diameter at the base.

Image gallery
